Review: I am just getting started in electronic music creation, and this has been the perfect synth for me. At first I was comparing this keyboard to the UltraNova and wasn't sure which one to get. I really wanted a vocoder (both have this) and they both have the same sound engine, but I was used to the full-size keys of a larger keyboard and I wasn't sure how I would like having to run the sound through a separate USB MIDI input (the UltraNova can just plug in via USB). Ultimately the lower cost of the MiniNova and the great videos I saw on YouTube won me over in favor of the MiniNova. It's been great! I've been using it with Garageband on a Mac - plugged in through a USB MIDI input device I bought years ago, and recording has been very easy. I record it as a "real instrument", not as a MIDI controller. Just make sure your levels are good (not too low and not peaked) and you get a perfect recording. In fact, the smaller size of this keyboard has made recording MUCH easier on my computer, since the MiniNova can sit on my desk right in front of my computer keyboard and not have to sit on some large stand a few feet away. The smaller keys are actually easier to play in some respects because you can jump around much easier. The only time I wish for a larger keyboard (in terms of number of keys) is when I play something classical like Bach, but when I actually go to record my own electronic music this doesn't really apply anyway. There is an easy to use octave control that gives you whatever range you are looking for when needed. The sounds are excellent. I love the vocoder and there are a lot of great synthesizer sounds, both modern and classic. The arpeggio/motion sounds are very good. If anything I could use a few more, but it's an impressive collection overall. Just hearing some of the sounds and playing around with them is inspiring for the kind of music you can create. I've been sticking to mostly the "stock" sounds without having to do much tweaking with the onboard controls, but as I play around with those I can see the power that is available for tweaking on the fly. They are easy to use. I would say the only "problem" I have had (and I wouldn't say it's a true problem), is that if I do go crazy with some tweaking of sounds, sometimes it seems I lose the original "stock" sound, but a quick reset of the synth (turn it off and back on) brings it back to normal. Maybe a reset button would be useful, but it's not a big deal to get around it. The controls on the MiniNova also seem a bit easier than the UltraNova. When I tried out the UltraNova in a local music store, it took the sales guy (and me) about half an hour to get the vocoder to work. Much simpler on the MiniNova - just turn the dial and you get your choices. I also like that the sound tweaking controls are right there in front of you with real controls and not buried in some menu that you have to navigate. Overall an excellent synth that is relatively easy, fun to play, and powerful enough to keep me happy for years to come. Nice job, Novation.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Did anyone buy the one with the bigger keys? $199 extra for bigger keys?? Worth it?**
A: Yes, it really worth.... Bigger keys let you play it as a regular keyboard. Mininova`s are too small

**Q: Do i need to run this through my computer via midi? or can i use it stand alone? sick of having to use programs, just want a plug and play synth.**
A: It's completely stand alone.  However there is no sequencer on board.  It is not a workstation.  great synth though.  It does have a fantastic software editor that makes programing it very very easy but you do not have to use the software editor you can totally programme it by hand.

**Q: My son composes music for his video games. He is looking for more than 8 bit sounds (no idea what that means) Would this synth be a good fit?**
A: This is a professional synth. There are 100's of sounds. Check the Novation website. I thinks it's 36 bit data. He will fiddle this synth for years.

**Q: does this mininova come with the microphone pictured for vocoder input?**
A: yes, it comes with the microphone pictured. I myself haven't used the mic so I can't say anything about the quality of it.

*by D***K on 13 June 2017*

Wow! What an awesome synthesizer.. Unbeatable synth for this price range. Delivers crystal clear sounds with lots of live modulation controls. Very good bass voices, leads, pads, arpeggiators.. The good thing is, they have been releasing new sound patches then and then. So, whenever we need more presets, we can just download and install them.. If you are looking only for synth voices and you don't need piano or any realistic instruments, This is bang for the buck. Only thing is, the keys are small.. but its ok to play with these keys. It provides good look for the Instrument.
